Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the different elements of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host building and its surroundings
The effect of the different elements on the residential amenities of neighbours (whether unacceptable harm would be caused by overbearing appearance or overshadowing or intrusion on privacy)

What decided it

The garage's location alongside the shared driveway and close to the adjoining house would create a visually intrusive and cramped feature causing real visual harm to the streetscene, outweighing any benefits and conflicting with national and local planning policies.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies: Policy BAS BE12
National Planning Policy Framework: Paragraph 12

How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
